Major shifts in social networking behavior and applications for marketers can be anticipated as use of social networking Web sites migrates from computers to mobile communications devices.
Mobile and targeting technologies can be combined in new ways to provide more personalized services for consumers, including targeted interactive advertising, according to In Real Life (IRL), a social networking services company, based in the Netherlands and China.
